Tips:
- Choose the right flank steak: Look for a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is tender and flavorful.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. Be sure to marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Grill the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the steak and keep it juicy on the inside. Cook the steak for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Slice the steak against the grain: This will help to make the steak more tender and easier to chew.
